Description of πŸ”Œ Douk Audio USB Converter XMOS XU208 Digital Interface Optical Coaxial DOP SPDIF Adapter DSD64 PCM192Khz

U2 is a USB to Toslink optical and coaxial converter, suitable for PC computer, notebook, android phone(OTG), set-top box, rock 64, raspberry pi and so on, it can bring better listening experience than PC own sound card. Adopting the digital interface of XMOS XU208 chip solution, with 1000MIPS random access memory much higher than U8 (500MIPS). More stable than Italian Amanero solution and supporting coaxial DSD DOP output. With micro USB input and TOSLINK optical / coaxial output (can output at the same time), supporting 44.1K-192KHz/16-24Bit sampling rate and DSD64 (DOP), better signal process brings higher sound quality and Hi-Fi listening experience. Using gold-plated coaxial interface, the contact internal resistance is smaller and the data transmission is more reliable. U2 is powered by USB, very convenient to carry and use anytime and anywhere. Mini size with exquisite design, black and red aluminum cases look cuter and fashionable, very suitable for desktop digital players use.

Now that turned out to be very interesting.

Got a douk to replace an old USB to coax adapter that only worked at 16 bits. It turned out surprisingly well and I've been using it ever since. I built a near-field setup on a table like this: a 32" Samsung TV, an SMSL AD18 for the amplifier, Polk satellite speakers with a subwoofer, and a Dell XPS 17 laptop and iPad Pro for jammers. an all-device ticket because it allowed me to easily switch between sources or use Bluetooth, had enough power, and enough tone and DSP settings to allow for any…

Pros
  • With micro USB input and optical/coaxial TOSLINK output (can be output simultaneously), support for 44.1-192 kHz/16-24 bit sampling rate and DSD64 (DOP), improved signal processing offers higher sound quality and HiFi listening experience.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Android OTG for minidsp

Used to convert Android USB audio to digital SPDIF for forwarding to minidsp CDSP8x12 in car audio system. Tidal MQA streaming will play from Android (and iOS I think) with no other drivers, jailbreak, or weird USB settings. This unit can be powered by your Android device, although I modified the USB-A to Micro USB cable to be powered by a 12 volt to 5 volt converter can. Only some basic soldering skills are required to redirect the power supply (red) from your Android device to an alternative…

Pros
  • XMOS XU208 chip digital interface acceptance with 1000 MIPS random access memory is much higher than U8 (500 MIPS). More stable than Italian Amanero solution and supports DSD DOP coaxial output.
Cons
  • Long Shipping

Super is a real audiophile quality component.

The sound quality of this box is really excellent. I'm using it to transfer 24/192 PCM audio from a Windows tablet to a Benchmark DAC1 using a glass optical cable. This particular DAC is very sensitive to the quality of the input signal. I used the SMAKN CM6631 audio interface, but it seemed to me that too much computer action was heard over it - in particular, the beginning of each song was brighter and forward than the rest, because the player used the computer a lot during this time. So I…

Pros
  • U2 is a USB to Toslink Optical & Coaxial Converter, suitable for PC, Laptop, Android (OTG) Phone, Set Top Box, Rock 64, Raspberry Pi, etc., which can provide better listening experience than the PC's own sound card . .
